As a seasoned chess enthusiast with decades of experience under my belt, I find myself intrigued by the ongoing saga between Vladimir Kramnik and Hikaru Nakamura. Kramnik, a former world champion, has always had a knack for stirring up controversy, but his latest accusations against Chess.com competitors seem to have crossed a line, landing him a one-month ban.
In response to being accused of cheating, the contentious Chess Grandmaster, Vladimir Kramnik, was disqualified from participating in online competitions hosted on Chess.com. In response, he advocated for a penalty against Hikaru Nakamura, another player involved in the controversy.
On Titled Tuesday’s week-long competition held on September 24, organized by Chess.com, Kramnik finished second. Subsequently, he raised allegations of cheating against two of his competitors during the tournament, via social media.
The organizer of the online chess competition temporarily banned the experienced chess champion for a month due to public allegations he made, which they deemed a breach of their Community Policy. This information was shared via an email that Kramnik himself published as a screenshot.
In an email sent by Michael Szklanny, the Director of Event Operations at Chess.com, it was stated that since you were previously informed about comparable misconduct during Late Titled Tuesday on September 17, 2024, your actions today appear to be a second breach of our established policy.
Previously crowned Chess world champion reacted to the ban by urging the organizer to impose a ban on Hikaru for similar misconduct. He asserted that he possesses concrete evidence showing that the GM and streamer had accused a player of cheating during a Titled Tuesday event, in addition to numerous other public accusations.
In the past, Kramnik has been known for leveling charges of cheating against others, notably aiming those allegations at Hikaru during his exceptional run of victories in online competitions.
After being barred from using covercheating.com, a site I hadn’t intended to use, Kramnik stated on social media that he assumes the same measure will be taken regarding the overall image and values of the platform.
Consequently, because you’ve prohibited me from playing on covercheating.com, which I wasn’t actually intending to do in the first place, I assume you’ll take similar action regarding your platform, upholding its values. I hope your attempts to undermine the game’s integrity will be unsuccessful.

Over time, the role of the Grandmaster (GM) has faced growing criticism due to accusations against them. These accusations include alleging that Chess.com concealed cheating, providing guidance to Hans Niemann, and involvement in tournaments emphasizing anti-cheating practices.
In addition, Chess.com has suspended Kramnik a second time. Earlier this year, he was barred from the platform due to his actions of pretending to be another Grandmaster.
At the point when this text was written, Hikaru had yet to address the accusations that were made against him. On September 24, the streaming grandmaster and titled player came in second place in another Titled Tuesday tournament. They were bested by Magnus Carlsen who took first place.
